Learning to Receive
By Brad Stroup
As a community, we’ve been experiencing some fatigue, and our leadership team has been trying to figure out what’s going on. While we probably don’t have it all figured out, one thing did stand out to us that we want to hone in on and try to see shift. As a community, we’re not great at receiving from the Lord. Part of the reason that we’re bad at this is because we haven’t done a good job of teaching on how to dial down and connect with the Holy Spirit. We’ve taught how to rightly divide the Word, how to interpret it and how to understand what scripture says, but our walk with Jesus is intended to be one of Spirit and Truth. When our spirits are weak, we must feed it not with truth alone but things of the Spirit. This 3-part series is aimed to help us see what posturing ourselves to receive from the Lord looks like as we journey this together.
